I'm too lazy to brew it, but I'll sure help you drink it! :D Assuming I'm over my plague by whatever date the ride is to be held. I got mostly better, although I never completely stopped lightly coughing up small amounts of crud, but it came back with a vengeance on Thursday, and I've been sick as a dog since. I've finally given up, I'm going to the doctor tomorrow. (I typically won't go unless it's a matter of bones sticking out of flesh.) I'm so aggravated about how much riding I've been missing!! :mad:
http://tinyurl.com/2u78db Best nose wipes I've ever seen. I might never buy another bow of kleenex. The beer ride won't be for 1-2 months so you have plenty of time to heal. I would try a little Irish whiskey. |

Who else got out and enjoyed the wind yesterday?
I did the B&A from Annapolis to the Ranger Station at Earleigh Heights and back. The way there sucked, the way back was better. |
Last nights wind was tough but better than this mornings cold. 18F at the start. Yesterday I was almost blow to the curb twice by huge gust of winds.

The descents were so painful, I had one hand over my face. I was wishing I had taken my hilly route just to warm up. On a good note: I was excited to start commuting the whole way home last night now that we've got sunlight till almost 6pm! Spring's a comin'. -GB |
March 9 is the time change. Meaning group rides in the evening during the week!!!
And the ride this afternoon could be a bit chilly... since it is still only around 34... I am ready for the questions "Did you really wear all of that at once?" |

The wind yesterday and today was great, yeah right. I have no idea how I can be riding directly into the wind both to and from work, 2 days in a row, !. Takes nearly 6 minutes longer to get home thats crazy.

I was out and about the other night and saw a flyer for a Tour de Cure running out of Ellicott City on June 7th. Since it's in my area and diabetes runs in my family, I thought I'd give it a try, pending work doesn't send me out of town. Has anybody here done this, or perhaps is planning on participating this year? I'm just looking for some sort of opinion as to how well this thing is organized.

Finally figured out how to post a photo on the forums. I'd love to see what everyone else on this thread rides. Come on everyone. It'll help us get pumped up for spring! Show your pride and joy...
Here's mine 2007 Giant TCR Advanced 1 http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/g...CRAdvaced1.jpg |
Pretty bike! I love the TCR's. Still kicking myself for not getting one. But at least mine is close.

The Civil War Century

Basically the CWC had some problems last year and that's the number of riders the committee feels it can handle with the number of volunteers they have.
|
I grew up in that area. Anyone know when registration will open. I'd love to do this.
|
Registration should be opening up soon (I thought it was already open, my bad.) Check back next week.
|
I sure will. This would make 2 centuries I can do in Sept. I did the Back Roads Century put on by the Potomac Peddlers last year. And will be doing again this year. Thanks for posting the info for us..

Attention: Arbutus, Catonsville & Lansdowne (Dist. 12a)
It looks like the 3 foot bubble bill (HB 143) is in real trouble in the House Environmental Matters Committee. The problem seems to be Delegate James Malone, the Vice Chair. His issue is the same old story - how will a motorist get around a bike with 3 feet to spare if the bicyclist is "hogging the road".
